True about the tax cuts, but the data is looking only at revenue. Since the issue we were discussing was tax burden (revenue), no data about spending was relevant. There is other data out there that's more current, but more difficult to post. I'll leave it to you to let your fingers do the searching.
Now, wouldn't it be fun to find out what our spending is per capita, and what the trend data looks like?
